HOMELESSNESS CAN
HAPPEN TO ANYONE Stuart searches for a roof. At the moment I am homeless. I fell out with my parents and I got a flat in Chorley, but I got evicted. I was getting into drugs and getting in with the wrong crowd really. I ha ve come up her e because I am not really wanted in Chorley. I am staying at a friend of a friend's flat at the moment but it is looking like I will ha ve to find somewhere to stay and quick. I am going up to the Salvation Army later on and hopefully I will get somewhere ther e. I am just glad that places like the Drop-In Centre are open for a meal. I started taking drugs when I was twenty five. My girlfriend left me and I got into a deep depression. At the time I was living in a block of flats and the other lad who were living there were already into drugs,they just introduced me to it. I can't blame them though,I' ve got a mind of my own. I reall y regret it,especially starting at a late age. I ha ve worked most of my life and had e verything to liv e f or, so I don't know why I got into drugs,it just happened. I got depressed because my girlfriend went off with this lad to Southport,she just left overnight. I loved her and that did my head in. She got into drugs and we were just falling out all the time . I was trying to get her off the drugs but it just wasn't working. We just kept falling out and falling out,and eventually she just fired off. I tried to help her for three years and I ended up on the drugs. I do believe in God,I belie ve He is there when we all die . I think that if you are good and you try to forgive yourself through life He will forgive you. |
